PatrickMets loves “old, industrial buildings” and he’s always been fascinated by water towers. After years of scouting the Belgian countryside he found one for sale (for 30,000 euros or about $43,000 at the time) and began working to convert it into a home.
“It was quite naive that we bought it because we didn’t have any permit to convert it into something else,” explains Mets. “And so it took us 12 years, 7 years to get the necessary permit and 5 years of renovation work.”
Working with designer Mauro Brigham (NC & Bham), they tried to leave as much of the tower in its original state. Fortunately the 30-meter-high (90 feet) tower was built with windows- an oddity for a water tower-, but forty of them keep the converted home well lit.
The water tank itself was kept mainly intact. Brigham and Mets added a floor inside it and cut holes out of the sides for views and it now serves as the kitchen and living room.
After a couple years using the space as their full-time home, Mets and his partner Valérie Lecherf moved out to be closer to their daughters’ school. Today they rent the “Chateau d’Eau” for special events.

Have you ever seen a forest fire lookout tower and imagined what an amazing little house it could be? Glenda Kaser Alm was a young girl when she visited a 75′ tall lookout tower with her dad, and she decided then and there to one day live in a tower house. Many years later and with the help of her son, architect Brent Alm, she brought her dream to life. The tower’s design was based on 1930s-era Forest Service lookout towers.
The three-storey tower has a footprint of 20′ by 20′ but a garage takes up half the ground level, leaving 1,000 ft2 (92.9 m2) of living space. The other half of the lowest floor has the entry, a small workshop/utility area, a powder room and, of course, the stairs. A disadvantage of a tall and skinny design is that stairs eat up a lot of the floor area, in this case 150 ft2 (13.9 m2) of it.
Heading up to the second floor, you find the bedroom and a full bathroom. The bedroom is quite big, including a home office space and large closet. It’s big enough to be split into two bedrooms except that the L-configuration of the stairs means that people going up and down pass through the office space. If the stairs had been design with a U shape instead then it would be easy to get two bedrooms on that floor.
Of course the pinnacle of a tower is the whole point of building one. Like the fire lookout towers that inspired it, this one has wrap-around windows offering 360 degree views of Oregon’s high desert landscape. With those views, it only made sense to put the main living area at the top. For those who can’t manage stairs, an electrically-powered bosun’s chair takes you all the way up via two floor hatches.
There is a small propane stove in the center of the floor with the eat-in kitchen area on one side and the sitting area on the other. A chest freezer was converted into a fridge to avoid blocking the windows. The four futon couches lining the walls double as guest beds, and their plywood box bases provide additional storage space. Doors on three sides lead out to the catwalk deck that encircles the house.
After living in her lookout tower for a while, Glenda and her partner decided to spend their time traveling and sold the tower house. The new owners have made it available for vacation rentals through Airbnb.

Today we’re going to take a look at a small house from the past. The ChalfordRoundhouse is one of five similar houses along the Thames and Severn Canal in Gloucestershire, England. They were built in the 1790’s to house the families of canal workers.
Like the others, the Chalford Roundhouse was built of local stone with heavy oak beams supporting the floors. It is roofed with slate and has Gothic-style windows.
It has three stories plus an attic under the conical roof. With a diameter of just under 17′ (5.2 m), each floor measures only about 215 ft2 (20 m2). The lowest level was used as a storeroom and workshop, and the family lived on the two floors above. However, the occupants reportedly were not fond of the houses due to the limited space and the difficulty in furnishing the circular rooms.
Since then the house has been modernized and all four levels are included in the living space, though the attic bedroom has very limited headroom.

Tower house

A tower house is a particular type of stone structure, built for defensive purposes as well as habitation.

History

Tower houses began to appear in the Middle Ages, especially in mountainous or limited access areas, in order to command and defend strategic points with reduced forces. At the same time, they were also used as an aristocrat's residence, around which a castle town was often constructed.

Europe

After their initial appearance in Ireland, Scotland, northern Spain, and England during the High Middle Ages, tower houses were also built in other parts of western Europe as early as the late 14th century, especially in parts of France and Italy. In Italian medieval communes, tower houses were increasingly built by the local barons as power centres during times of intenal strife.

Tower

A tower is a tall structure, taller than it is wide, often by a significant margin. Towers are distinguished from masts by their lack of guy-wires and are therefore, along with tall buildings, self-supporting structures.

Towers are specifically distinguished from "buildings" in that they are not built to be habitable but to serve other functions. The principal function is the use of their height to enable various functions to be achieved including: visibility of other features attached to the tower such clock towers; as part of a larger structure or device to increase the visibility of the surroundings as in a fortified building such as a castle; or as a structural feature as an integral part of a bridge.

Towers can be stand alone structures or be supported by adjacent buildings or can be a feature on top of a large structure or building.

History

Towers have been used by mankind since prehistoric times. The oldest known may be the circular stone tower in walls of Neolithic Jericho (8000 BC). Some of the earliest towers were ziggurats, which existed in Sumerian architecture since the 4th millennium BC. The most famous ziggurats include the Sumerian Ziggurat of Ur, built the 3rd millennium BC, and the Etemenanki, one of the most famous examples of Babylonian architecture. The latter was built in Babylon during the 2nd millennium BC and was considered the tallest tower of the ancient world.

House

A house is a building that functions as a home, ranging from simple dwellings such as rudimentary huts of nomadic tribes and the improvised shacks in shantytowns to complex, fixed structures of wood, brick, marble or other materials containing plumbing, ventilation and electrical systems. Most conventional modern houses in Western cultures will contain a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen or cooking area, and a living room. In traditional agriculture-oriented societies, domestic animals such as chickens or larger livestock (like cattle) may share part of the house with humans. The social unit that lives in a house is known as a household. Most commonly, a household is a family unit of some kind, although households may also be other social groups or individuals. The design and structure of the house is also subject to change as a consequence of globalization, urbanization and other social, economic, demographic, and technological reasons. Various other cultural factors also influence the building style and patterns of domestic space.

Fire lookout

A fire lookout is a person assigned the duty to look for fire from atop a building known as a fire lookout tower. These towers are used in remote areas, normally on mountain tops with high elevation and a good view of the surrounding terrain, to spot smoke caused by a wildfire.

Once a possible fire is spotted, "Smoke Reports", or "Lookout Shots" are relayed to the local Emergency Communications Center (ECC), often by radio or phone. A fire lookout can use a device known as an Osborne Fire Finder to obtain the radial in degrees off the tower, and the estimated distance from the tower to the fire.

Part of the lookout's duties include taking weather readings and reporting the findings to the Emergency Communications Center throughout the day. Often several lookouts will overlap in coverage areas and each will “cross” the same smoke, allowing the ECC to use triangulation from the radials to achieve an accurate location of the fire.

Once ground crews and fire suppressionaircraft are active in fire suppression, the lookout personnel continue to search for new smoke plumes which may indicate spotting and alterations that pose risks to ground crews.

Strangford Castle Tower House

Strangford Castle Tower House

Strangford Castle Tower House

This is another Tower House (not a town house as I have been absent-mindedly describing it! ) there are a whole series of these fortified Tower houses dotted along this coastla region. Local folk have got into the way of calling this a castle.
Strangford Castle is a castle on a height overlooking the harbour in Strangford, County Down, Northern Ireland, across Strangford Lough from Portaferry Castle. It was probably originally built in the 15th century but most of the present building dates from the late 16th century. The castle's popularity grew after it was used as the well-known castle of "Winterfell" in the TV showGame of Thrones.
It appears to be a small tower house from the late 16th century, but a blocked door of 15th century type at first floor level, seems to indicate the remodelling of an earlier tower. The current entrance, in the north-east wall, is a reconstruction, positioned by the surviving corbelled machicolation above and a socket from a draw-bar to secure the original door. The original entrance may have been on the first floor. It is a small, rectangular, three-storey tower house with no vault or stone stairway. The first floor fireplace has an oven. The ground floor chamber is lit only by small gun-loops. The roof has very fine crenellations, again with pistol-loops. The original floors, like their modern replacements, were made of wood.

Doors on three sides lead out to the catwalk deck that encircles the house.
After living in her lookout tower for a while, Glenda and her partner decided to spend their time traveling and sold the tower house. The new owners have made it available for vacation rentals through Airbnb.

Many years later and with the help of her son, architect Brent Alm, she brought her dream to life. The tower’s design was based on 1930s-era Forest Service lookout towers.
The three-storey tower has a footprint of 20′ by 20′ but a garage takes up half the ground level, leaving 1,000 ft2 (92.9 m2) of living space. The other half of the lowest floor has the entry, a small workshop/utility area, a powder room and, of course, the stairs. A disadvantage of a tall and skinny design is that stairs eat up a lot of the floor area, in this case 150 ft2 (13.9 m2) of it.
Heading up to the second floor, you find the bedroom and a full bathroom. The bedroom is quite big, including a home office space and large closet. It’s big enough to be split into two bedrooms except that the L-configuration of the stairs means that people going up and down pass through the office space. If the stairs had been design with a U shape instead then it would be easy to get two bedrooms on that floor.
Of course the pinnacle of a tower is the whole point of building one. Like the fire lookout towers that inspired it, this one has wrap-around windows offering 360 degree views of Oregon’s high desert landscape. With those views, it only made sense to put the main living area at the top. For those who can’t manage stairs, an electrically-powered bosun’s chair takes you all the way up via two floor hatches.
There is a small propane stove in the center of the floor with the eat-in kitchen area on one side and the sitting area on the other. A chest freezer was converted into a fridge to avoid blocking the windows. The four futon couches lining the walls double as guest beds, and their plywood box bases provide additional storage space. Doors on three sides lead out to the catwalk deck that encircles the house.
After living in her lookout tower for a while, Glenda and her partner decided to spend their time traveling and sold the tower house. The new owners have made it available for vacation rentals through Airbnb.

#TinyHouseLover is a channel sharing homes under 500 sq ft. In the past few years, #tiny homes have surged in popularity. They're economical, environmentally friendly, and encourage people to live minimally.

Today we’re going to take a look at a small house from the past. The ChalfordRoundhouse is one of five similar houses along the Thames and Severn Canal in Gloucestershire, England. They were built in the 1790’s to house the families of canal workers.
Like the others, the Chalford Roundhouse was built of local stone with heavy oak beams supporting the floors. It is roofed with slate and has Gothic-style windows.
It has three stories plus an attic under the conical roof. With a diameter of just under 17′ (5.2 m), each floor measures only about 215 ft2 (20 m2). The lowest level was used as a storeroom and workshop, and the family lived on the two floors above. However, the occupants reportedly were not fond of the houses due to the limited space and the difficulty in furnishing the circular rooms.
Since then the house has been modernized and all four levels are included in the living space, though the attic bedroom has very limited headroom.
This small stone house is currently for sale through ButlerSherborn. The asking price is £375,000. [Update: It is no longer on the market.]

This is another Tower House (not a town house as I have been absent-mindedly describing it! ) there are a whole series of these fortified Tower houses dotted along this coastla region. Local folk have got into the way of calling this a castle.
Strangford Castle is a castle on a height overlooking the harbour in Strangford, County Down, Northern Ireland, across Strangford Lough from Portaferry Castle. It was probably originally built in the 15th century but most of the present building dates from the late 16th century. The castle's popularity grew after it was used as the well-known castle of "Winterfell" in the TV showGame of Thrones.
It appears to be a small tower house from the late 16th century, but a blocked door of 15th century type at first floor level, seems to indicate the remodelling of an earlier tower. The current entrance, in the north-east wall, is a reconstruction, positioned by the surviving corbelled machicolation above and a socket from a draw-bar to secure the original door. The original entrance may have been on the first floor. It is a small, rectangular, three-storey tower house with no vault or stone stairway. The first floor fireplace has an oven. The ground floor chamber is lit only by small gun-loops. The roof has very fine crenellations, again with pistol-loops. The original floors, like their modern replacements, were made of wood.

Learning To Fly - Pink Floyd (Lyrics karaoke)
========================================================
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast,
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought, I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladen, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
[Spoken:]
Friction lock ...

This tower shaped dwelling is a result of the client’s request for a larger home with additional bedrooms, baths and living areas. Instead of extending the old limestone cabin, the architects decided to create a brand new vertical home that rises up out of the forest, providing stunning views of Lake Travis.

Highland Water Tower Open House - Fall 2017

The Desert LookOut Tower Before Abandoned Train

The stone tower was built from 1922 to 1928 as a roadside attraction by BertVaughn, a real estate developer who owned Jacumba. The three story tower houses a museum and has an observation deck on its upper level. The gift shop at the base of the tower is a later addition.
An ensemble of stone sculptures of animal, called Boulder Park, is adjacent to Desert View Tower. They were sculpted by M.T. Ratliffe (or Radcliff) over two years during the 1930s in the local stone. Both the tower and sculpture garden are works of folk art.

Welcome to ChunkBuild, the series where we make small but beautiful houses in one chunk! Today we build a Dwarven Tower in one chunk! And we use some pretty new materials to complement the old stone.
The timelapse is epic if I say so myself, making this a MinecraftTimelapseHouse :)
This build is available to download as a structure block here:
(TBA)
To use this structure in your own world, download it and put it in the structures folder in your world save folder. Then give yourself a structure block (/give @p minecraft:structure_block), place it and set it to load, entering the file name as name.
Chunkbuild is a series where I will show three builds per theme, then go on to a new theme, ad infinitum. Each build fits in a Minecraft chunk, ergo Chunkbuild. The themes will vary tremendously, so if you don't like a style, just give it a week or so and then check back.
In these videos I show of the build, comment on the block palette; details of the builds and show you how to do elements that are hard to build or interesting. The theme this time is Atlantis.

The High Legh water tower at WarringtonRoad between Knutsford and Warrington in Cheshire has been converted into a domestic dwelling. The internal work is not yet complete. The owner said that he has 33 feet of spiral staircase to install at the top to replace the ladder which is there at the time that I spoke to him.

The stone tower was built from 1922 to 1928 as a roadside attraction by BertVaughn, a real estate developer who owned Jacumba. The three story tower houses a museum and has an observation deck on its upper level. The gift shop at the base of the tower is a later addition.
An ensemble of stone sculptures of animal, called Boulder Park, is adjacent to Desert View Tower. They were sculpted by M.T. Ratliffe (or Radcliff) over two years during the 1930s in the local stone. Both the tower and sculpture garden are works of folk art.

I am more convinced than ever that my research has lead me on the right track into unveiling the truth about our distant past both on Earth, Mars and other near planets.

The TV world is always looking for new talent and a fresh look at sometimes controversial subject matters.

It also seems that the news press are finally taking heed of our articles although often with a not so subliminal sneer usually reserved for politicians.

From old Belgian water tank to dream tower house with a view

PatrickMets loves “old, industrial buildings” and he’s always been fascinated by water towers. After years of scouting the Belgian countryside he found one for sale (for 30,000 euros or about $43,000 at the time) and began working to convert it into a home.
“It was quite naive that we bought it because we didn’t have any permit to convert it into something else,” explains Mets. “And so it took us 12 years, 7 years to get the necessary permit and 5 years of renovation work.”
Working with designer Mauro Brigham (NC & Bham), they tried to leave as much of the tower in its original state. Fortunately the 30-meter-high (90 feet) tower was built with windows- an oddity for a water tower-, but forty of them keep the converted home well lit.
The water tank itself was kept mainly intact. Brigham and Mets added a floor inside it and cut holes out of the sides for views and it now serves as the kitchen and living room.
After a couple years using the space as their full-time home, Mets and his partner Valérie Lecherf moved out to be closer to their daughters’ school. Today they rent the “Chateau d’Eau” for special events.

Forest Fire Lookout Tower House, Amazing Small House Design

Have you ever seen a forest fire lookout tower and imagined what an amazing little house it could be? Glenda Kaser Alm was a young girl when she visited a 75′ tall lookout tower with her dad, and she decided then and there to one day live in a tower house. Many years later and with the help of her son, architect Brent Alm, she brought her dream to life. The tower’s design was based on 1930s-era Forest Service lookout towers.
The three-storey tower has a footprint of 20′ by 20′ but a garage takes up half the ground level, leaving 1,000 ft2 (92.9 m2) of living space. The other half of the lowest floor has the entry, a small workshop/utility area, a powder room and, of course, the stairs. A disadvantage of a tall and skinny design is that stairs eat up a lot of the floor area, in this case 150 ft2 (13.9 m2) of it.
Heading up to the second floor, you find the bedroom and a full bathroom. The bedroom is quite big, including a home office space and large closet. It’s big enough to be split into two bedrooms except that the L-configuration of the stairs means that people going up and down pass through the office space. If the stairs had been design with a U shape instead then it would be easy to get two bedrooms on that floor.
Of course the pinnacle of a tower is the whole point of building one. Like the fire lookout towers that inspired it, this one has wrap-around windows offering 360 degree views of Oregon’s high desert landscape. With those views, it only made sense to put the main living area at the top. For those who can’t manage stairs, an electrically-powered bosun’s chair takes you all the way up via two floor hatches.
There is a small propane stove in the center of the floor with the eat-in kitchen area on one side and the sitting area on the other. A chest freezer was converted into a fridge to avoid blocking the windows. The four futon couches lining the walls double as guest beds, and their plywood box bases provide additional storage space. Doors on three sides lead out to the catwalk deck that encircles the house.
After living in her lookout tower for a while, Glenda and her partner decided to spend their time traveling and sold the tower house. The new owners have made it available for vacation rentals through Airbnb.

A Stone Tower House | The Chalford Roundhouse | Adorable Small House Design

Today we’re going to take a look at a small house from the past. The ChalfordRoundhouse is one of five similar houses along the Thames and Severn Canal in Gloucestershire, England. They were built in the 1790’s to house the families of canal workers.
Like the others, the Chalford Roundhouse was built of local stone with heavy oak beams supporting the floors. It is roofed with slate and has Gothic-style windows.
It has three stories plus an attic under the conical roof. With a diameter of just under 17′ (5.2 m), each floor measures only about 215 ft2 (20 m2). The lowest level was used as a storeroom and workshop, and the family lived on the two floors above. However, the occupants reportedly were not fond of the houses due to the limited space and the difficulty in furnishing the circular rooms.
Since then the house has been modernized and all four levels are included in the living space, though the attic bedroom has very limited headroom.
This small stone house is currently for sale through ButlerSherborn. The asking price is £375,000. [Update: It is no longer on the market.]

Timber Frame Tree House Tower

Search for “problems with tree houses” and Google will serve up 37,100,000 results: it’s impossible not to harm the trees, trees grow over time, trees die, there aren’t the right trees where you’d really like to have a tree house… Our take on the tree house solves these problems. Carolina Timberworks’ two and a half story TimberFrameTree HouseTower is a better tree house: an engineered and architecturally designed kit that doesn’t rely on trees for support. This allows you to site your tree house on the best spot on your property instead of being limited to where the right trees are. No trees? No problem. Ever wanted to spend an afternoon hanging out in a fire tower gazing out over the forest and valleys? Got an amazing view if only you were 25’ higher? Brilliant, right?

Strangford Castle Tower House

This is another Tower House (not a town house as I have been absent-mindedly describing it! ) there are a whole series of these fortified Tower houses dotted along this coastla region. Local folk have got into the way of calling this a castle.
Strangford Castle is a castle on a height overlooking the harbour in Strangford, County Down, Northern Ireland, across Strangford Lough from Portaferry Castle. It was probably originally built in the 15th century but most of the present building dates from the late 16th century. The castle's popularity grew after it was used as the well-known castle of "Winterfell" in the TV showGame of Thrones.
It appears to be a small tower house from the late 16th century, but a blocked door of 15th century type at first floor level, seems to indicate the remodelling of an earlier tower. The current entrance, in the north-east wall, is a reconstruction, positioned by the surviving corbelled machicolation above and a socket from a draw-bar to secure the original door. The original entrance may have been on the first floor. It is a small, rectangular, three-storey tower house with no vault or stone stairway. The first floor fireplace has an oven. The ground floor chamber is lit only by small gun-loops. The roof has very fine crenellations, again with pistol-loops. The original floors, like their modern replacements, were made of wood.

Learning To Fly - Pink Floyd (Lyrics karaoke)
========================================================
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast,
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought, I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladen, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
[Spoken:]
Friction lock - set. Mixture - rich. Propellers - fully forward. Flaps - set - 10 degree. Engine gauges and suction - check
Mixture set to maximum percent - recheck
Flight instruments...
Altimeters - check both
(garbled word) - on
Navigation lights - on
Strobes - on
(to tower): Confirm 3-8-Echo ready for departure
(tower): Hello again, this is now 129.4
(to tower): 129.4. It's to go.
(tower): You may commence your takeoff, winds over 10 knots.
(to tower): 3-8-Echo
Easy on the brakes. Take it easy. Its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

Book Tower House has Landscape Most Beautiful in 2017 | Location London | Small House Design Ideas

The original property contained some Arts and Crafts influenced decorative aspects, which the owners were keen to retain and highlight, while introducing contemporary interventions.
The main feature is a double height library space at the heart of the house, created by combining the original rear reception room and a first floor bedroom. The feature staircase, wrapped in oak bookshelves, leads up to a built-in desk and study area with views over the ground floor.
To the rear of the house, a side extension to the existing kitchen was formed by resting an oak rib and skin structure, externally clad in zinc, onto the brick party wall. A cosy seating area with slide-away corner glazing creates a space where you feel surrounded by the garden

Welcome to ChunkBuild, the series where we make small but beautiful houses in one chunk! Today we build a Dwarven Tower in one chunk! And we use some pretty new materials to complement the old stone.
The timelapse is epic if I say so myself, making this a MinecraftTimelapseHouse :)
This build is available to download as a structure block here:
(TBA)
To use this structure in your own world, download it and put it in the structures folder in your world save folder. Then give yourself a structure block (/give @p minecraft:structure_block), place it and set it to load, entering the file name as name.
Chunkbuild is a series where I will show three builds per theme, then go on to a new theme, ad infinitum. Each build fits in a Minecraft chunk, ergo Chunkbuild. The themes will vary tremendously, so if you don't like a style, just give it a week or so and then check back.
In these videos I show of the build, comment on the block palette; details of the builds and show you how to do elements that are hard to build or interesting. The theme this time is Atlantis.
